Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - Considering Dr. Kirshenbaum



Recommended Posts

I mean, at my age should I be getting breast implants? Wouldn't that be kind of silly? On the other hand, if I'm going to have surgery, maybe I should go ahead and have good looking boobs too. I don't know.

Either way, it was kind of exciting and fun.

yayyy for you. my 2 cents???

Go for the boobs :thumbup: :cool2: :thumbup: :tt2: :mellow:

Thanks Julie. I tried some on and I kind of liked how they looked. They were pretty small, but they looked kind of good!

I'm coming to Colorado! I'll be out there April 7th, Tuesday, will stay a couple days and probably fly out on Thursday. I can tell I am starting to need a fill. My inbetween meals is getting closer now. Use to be four or five hours I could hold and maybe feel a tiny bit of hunger but now I am at three hours and feeling hunger.

*Isn't it great to know what it's like to FEEL hunger?* :tongue2:

Can we do a meet up on that Tuesday or Wednesday evening? I would love to meet some of you that can make it. :)

We could have a great time!!

Let me know.

Hello all!

Had my surgery yesterday! I am feeling remakably well, sore belly, mostly when I stand up or lay down. I thought I'd have much more pain like when I had my gallbladder out. Finally got to meet Dr.K and his staff, just as sweet as I thought he;d be, If my husband had any doubts he felt much better after meeting him. The hospital staff was fabulous, never had that kind attention before surgery.

We had a terrible time getting here, first the Atlanta airport was closed so they rerouted us through NY which was closed after waiting around 5 hours. Had to spend the night in Raleigh, then missed 2 other flights because Raleigh had snow that morning, Finally got into Denver half an hour after my appoint with Dr. K. So much for a little relaxing sightseeing!

We're staying at the Comfort suites in Engelwood. Great room with a min kitchen and a large sitting room with sofa and dining table. I would highly recommend it to anyone from out of town,

Well, I am so excited about the next year, thank you all SO MUCH for your encouragement and great advise!Lap-Dancer, I'll be back for my first fill on April 7 th, I'd love to meet you gals, keep me informed!

Hi Everyone...

I haven't been on in ages! Sounds like everyone is doing well...I am still about 10-12 from goal and am getting a little sick of the scale not moving. Still hitting the gym 3-5 days a week and am happy to see definition.

Went to a reunion for HS an everyone said I looked better now than in HS, also got hit on a few times. Would be fun if I were single... :blush:

Hope everyone continues to do so well!

GREAT Cheryl. I'll be there at Dr. K's office for my 2:15 appt. What time is your appt?

I can try the Comfort Suites in Engelwood. I am all about prices right now.

Glad you got home safely. That was one week storm, ya know?

YES, I thought the surgery was relatively painless in comparison to a few other surgeries I have had which were off the chain pain, whereas the band was mostly isolated to my surgical site. I understand what you mean by comparing it to your other surgery.

Anyone else around the states suffering from this sickness with symptoms of everything from nausea to nose? My school clinic looks like a checkout line at Christmas this past week especially.

Everyone at work is seriously in need of Spring Break. You can imagine how our state exploads with tourists over the next month. Traffic is getting progressively more congested and driving home in the afternoon is adding ten minutes to my afternoon drive due to the breakers.

Cherly I would love to meet up. Let's plan on it.

Tell me your appt. time. I know you want to tour a little around. So do I.

Possible places to dine. I'm thinking American mix, good Soups. I found these places:

Mesquite House East 9668 East Arapahoe Road

Black Eyed Pea Restaurant8505 East Arapahoe Road

Rockbottom Brewery & Restaurant*several locations

Rockbottom looks fun. Check out the menu:tt2:

Food Menu - Steak, Seafood, pastas, Sandwiches and More - Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery

>>YUM

Chicken Waldorf Saladua_rbr_food_bug_fav.gifua_rbr_food_bug_new.gif

Oven–roasted chicken, sundried cranberries, fresh arugula

Okay who wants to ROCK with me at Rockbottom?

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
